Only got to see them once, but have seen Dark Star Orchestra several times, they recreate entire shows, song by song.
GD is great, you can film, you can record, you can make t-shirts and sell them, etc. They don't care. You can see 5 concerts in a row and never hear the same song twice...and no lip synching.
Great stuff.
Their shows lasted for hours and hours. I knew a lot of guys that worked with them, and I met Mickey Hart several times. The were in Brooklyn many years ago and it was two in the morning and all the guys were talking the show down. Garcia had his favorite White Russian with him, with all the booze and just a little cream on top: he suddenly went over like a tree and that's how everyone found out he was diabetic.
